f8, which is a technical term referring the lens aperture setting on a camera, is theme long in the making. A little over five years ago, I began the arduous task of trying to find a way to present my photos to the world online. I primarily wanted two things: A portfolio section and a blog section built into one CMS. What I didn’t know at the time, is that it would take me five years to figure out. After researching literally hundreds of options including Flash powered portfolios (a big no-no in today’s mobile world), to countless bulky CMS’s that just didn’t cut it, I decided on using WordPress. It was well worth the wait.

I can’t download the theme for some reason. I get redirected to a page with this: Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/5251/domains/graphpaperpress.com/html/wp-config.php:81) in /home/5251/domains/graphpaperpress.com/html/wp-content/plugins/download-monitor/download.php on line 140

I downloaded both f8 static and f8 lite. Unfortunately I couldn’t get what I wanted with f8 lite so I’ve customised f8 static, and have ended up with the perfect theme I love it. http;//hotmiddlescence.com

F8 Static is working well for me. A couple of questions, though: 1) Is Static compatible with WordPress 2.8?; and 2) I would like to add a custom icon in the address bar – where would I need to add this code?

Warning: file(/home/user1/public_html/wp-content/themes/f8-static/style.css) [function.file]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/user/public_html/wp-includes/theme.php on line 180

QUESTION:
How do I get the front page to stop rotating pictures on the homepage.
I have already tried the “Static” settings in the “Settings area of WordPress, but it doesn’t work the way I want it to.

I would simply like to have the layout of either:

1. F8 Lite: with no slideshow changing (I don’t want a post masthead, I just want a general masthead pic there all the time no matter what post I add)

or

2. F8 Static: with a general pic as a masthead (not a post pic) and with no text blurb to the right.

So for both issues that I have, I just want a general masthead there that will never change no matter how many posts I add.

After trying, i realized that i have to put a custom field with the name “image” and the url of the image that i want to show in the post at the top (the image large) and a custom field with the name “thumbnail” and the url of the image for the posts below the principal post.

Hi! Ivé downloaded this theme…and installed it Ok (several times). Problem is when activated I get an error page when visiting the blog and need to start from scratch and re-install my whole blog…and clear my php-database! This has happened 2 times already and I´ve lost a lot of time over this. Now…what am I doing wrong?

I am thinking of bying a theme from you…but I want to try static first. F8-lite works ok, but not static.
